Back four shadow passing

DESCRIPTION

1/3 field

The two center backs and the two outside backs ping a ball back and forth across the back line without any pressure. The coach can use this time to shape the back line and underline the critical components of possession within the group.

Coach:

• Communication. All four backs must be well versed in instructing one-another as to their options.

• The weight of the pass is critical. Underweighted passes along the back line can lead to turn-overs or loss of advantage as the point of attack is changed.

• The importance of allowing the ball to travel across the body where possible to receive with the back-side foot. This technical consideration speeds play by minimizing the touches necessary for each player and also by getting the receiving player immediately turned to face the way they will be playing.
